The Netherlands' Europapa deserves its own reaction video.

[@That1BritishMonke]

Did you know that in the Ukrainian performance the little shooting star looking things are not shooting stars but they represent the phosphorus bombs that get dropped on Ukraine every night and the ramp that she is climbing is the ash and phosphorus from the bombs

[@spiral32]

did they just miss out on all of irelands screaming ????????

[@Clone308]

ikr? how can you even react to Ireland if you didn't see the screaming...

[@silversamm]

I dont think so, they did mention switches to heavier stuff which we werent shown here but they must've seen a bit more.

[@Thenoobestgirl]

Yup. Whoever the producer is, they did a terrible job here.

[@spiral32]

also i think that it was like made by producers that didnt watch the whole thing or something because they really missed the mark

[@wuquegy12]

fr!! They should've showed that!

[@MiaGwen]

The fact that they don't know the instruments from Armenia are pre-recorded made the reaction better

[@candychoerry]

you didn’t even show the most notable parts for ireland???

[@GoVeganOrDie]

Fr

[@beadelino2707]

I swear. Was so excited for it.

[@gulok3177]

how did you mess up editing some of the songs?? if you decide to not show the whole performance, for gods sake try to at least show the chorus of the songs....this just shows that you guys dont have an idea what the songs are about.

[@PastaSauce.]

This is why Americans shouldn’t touch Eurovision.

[@maplenerd22]

@@PastaSauce. And yet you guys persistently ask for reaction to Eurovision. Which is it? Do you guys want them to do it or not. Are all Europeans this dumb???

[@dkgilmorejunkie]

They should have included the screaming part of ireland 😱

[@LeojWatson]

too scary for americans

[@cailieisidro5758]

@LeojWatson American Eurovision fan here and Ireland’s my favorite this year. I honestly love everything about the song from being different from the other genres to Bambie showing off their talent

[@LeojWatson]

@cailieisidro5758 it was a joke but good you like it

[@cailieisidro5758]

@@LeojWatson Oh. Sorry how I can take things seriously, although the horror fans would love it

[@rossanasperanza6925]

why do you show only a few seconds? you can show the whole performance to them and then keep the best parts in the edit. this way they can rank the songs by actually knowing them

[@jippa]

I mean you know the video is edited, right?

[@yascaoimhin]

Yeah. Such a weird portion to choose for Ireland.

[@Halfling4]

​@@jippathey still show them snippets of the performances

[@rossanasperanza6925]

@@jippa they say in the video that they see only the part that is shown in the video

[@lucymacchiato1064]

I wonder what they would've thought about Europapa. I would've loved for you to at least mention some of the drama that was going on this year!:)

[@Gann06]

Guys you missed the best part of Ireland’s performance lol

[@Hrkortegaard]

Can’t believe that they cut out Bambie screaming her lungs out, or the high belts from either iolanda or Ladaniva. Sorry, this edition lacked some momentum. 💔

[@signebrummerstedt9205]

Just the fact that they didn’t watch the entirety of the performances tbh… Like just look at Switzerland - sure it was the climax of the song they saw, but it hits kinda different after you’ve watched/listened to Nemo rap just before then sung opera.

[@annethen7984]

Somehow it's refreshing to see a video of ESC where the people are not fully involved/know of all the politics that were a big part of it this year. Don't get me wrong. I have a lot of popinons about it, but this is makes it some how more innocent.

[@SIAN_1]

Can you show EVERYBODY the full performances next time, please?

[@BlackScisir]

Americans don't have the attention span.

[@leavoda3791]

Croatian song is actually about youth in Croatia fleeing the country bc there is no future in a land full of corruption in politics and economy. In the original music video the plot is set at the beginning of the 20'th century to emphasise how the same thing is happening again for the last 10 years.

[@thekat2784]

It's about people leaving rural areas to live in the city

[@alejandroors]

That recap choice from ireland was so bad ngl

[@alejandroors]

ok nvm every recap was horrendous

[@ahthatkyle]

“I love how European this show is” it’s crazy because we think “how American this channel is”

[@jonathanbehann]

“Except the United States” and it better stay that way

[@Eva-mp7xg]

And a few more countries on those handful more continents that are neither Europe nor the US. 🤷‍♂ Geography is so complicated 🤣

[@beadelino2707]

Yeah.. More than just the United States but you know.. American people and geography haha

[@Armillifer]

They tried doing an American Song Contest. It lasted one year and was a total flop. I listened to some of the songs and they just don't get Eurovision enough to do it justice. Eurovision is so unique in what songs are being made. There's variety in all genres, but still so very Eurovision!

[@keitaro-kun2373]

​@@ArmilliferYeah, they will make a eurovision latin america with the latin american countries and Portugal and Spain too, I hope it will also be as successful as Eurovision, to show the world what my country can do 🥲🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@Meye55]

I’ve got to agree that showing them just these bits does not show enough since in esc there’s so much happening in stage :/ Especially ireland, france and switzerland you don’t get an accurate idea of through just those bits 🫤

[@AleksandarIliev95]

So you couldn’t find the time to possibly show the full performances? Hmm, that doesn’t sit right with me, especially because some chosen sequences suck.

[@valjkorigoz9730]

Yea. For example French one is highlight of the song. While Ireland is the most mellow part of the song. Thats why some say France should have been higher.

[@kayleighsm_]

People have been asking for full songs for years, I genuinely disliked this video because of their blatant disregard of this
